Exercise 7, page 77.0:02
What do you do when you and your parents disagree about things?0:06
What kind of things?0:10
Well, let's say that you want to go somewhere or do something and they won't let you.0:11
Well, I think it helps to find out their reasons why they won't give me permission.0:15
Usually they are only thinking of my health and safety.0:20
So I try and ease their worries so I can do what I want.0:24
What do you mean?0:28
Well, if they think I will be out too late at night, I'll offer to come home a bit earlier or ask them to pick me up.0:29
If they are worried about me falling behind with my schoolwork.0:36
I'll reassure them that I will do all my homework before I go out and things like that.0:39
If you can reassure them, they will feel better about letting you do stuff.0:44
I've tried that, but it didn't work.0:48
Well, you.0:50
You could always ask them under what circumstances they would be willing to allow you to do certain things and then agree to their terms.0:51
If you compromise a bit, you will probably both get what you want.0:58
My parents just won't listen.1:03
Oh, dear.1:05
Well, you definitely have to talk to them and try to remind them that they were young once too.1:06
Perhaps they will realize that all teenagers rebel against conformity in some way.1:12
And it's perfectly normal to want to go out and socialise and do all sorts of things at our age.1:17
That's good advice.1:22
Thanks.1:24
No problem.1:24
Let me know how things go.1:26
Yeah, I will.1:27
